We are Shinobi

by Shadoah Nocturne

Sakura despises how weak she constantly seems and takes time away from home. What happens when an occurence happens to bring same Uchiha to Suna after her? To those who show nasty comments or smartbutt remarks, Yes I am still writing, get over it please. Stop harassing me, your remarks are not worth me getting upset over, for each remark I find, I delete it.

Chapter 2 – Routine

Sakura collapsed onto her bed after several hours of healing. She took her shot of chakra replenishing serum which was designed by Tsunade to help Sakura's body repair and replenish the cells for chakra flow. She laid down and felt that rush of chakra surging through her as her body began to mend the exhaustion and use of her chakra. She rolled onto her side and within minutes she was asleep.

Flashback Beginning

Sakura gazed at the image of team 7, mostly Sasuke's face and she had never even felt the sharp piercing pain while her kunai sliced through the flesh of her wrist. She watched as the blood flowed down her hand, dripping onto the floor of her apartment. However at that moment she was not counting on a visit from Kakashi.

"SAKURA! WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?" he yelled as he snatched a towel and quickly put it over her wrist, picking her up he dashed out to the Hokage. After hushed words, Tsunade entered the room and healed her wrist, leaving only a thin scar that would be the day that was forever to be in her memory.

Flashback End

Sakura's eyes snapped open as she sat up. She winced when she felt the scar on her wrist, had it not been for Kakashi, she would no longer be here. She stood and made her way to the fridge to get a bottle of water. Drinking half the bottle she set it on the table when she noticed the note she tossed on the table that Neji had given her. She sat down and unfolded it, feeling bad she didn't get to read it soon enough. Her eyes widened when she read it's contents…

Sakura,

I apologize for not informing you of this when you were in Konoha, I feel some time away will clear your head a bit and mayhap make you open to the possibility of the chance to have you and the Uchiha brat unified to begin the restoration of the Uchiha clan as they are one of the most prominent clans of our village.

Take some time to think on it, Don't decide immediately because going by the reaction of you leaving, I would say things are poor between you and him. Hope to see you soon Sakura.

Tsunade

Sakura folded the note back up and flung it, 'How dare she expect me to marry ice prick.' She thought to herself as she showered and dressed for the next shift at the medic unit. She would focus on this as she would a normal shift, with no thought directed at Sasuke in any shape, manner or form. She locked the door and ran to the unit, smiling when the nurses were ready to begin.

Sakura had been in Suna for 4 months, Sasuke was starting to wonder if she would ever return o Konoha, his thoughts however were interrupted when Kakashi appeared before him in a poof and informed him he was needed at the Hokage tower. Running, he arrived there almost seconds after Naruto did. Tsunade ushered them in and slammed the door shut. "Sakura's been kidnapped. I did nto wish to discuss this outside the office because I am sure you and Naruto know the severity of the situation Kakashi. Sakura is a very valuable and highly skilled medic ninja. One who's skills rival even my own, I need her found and immediately. Kill whoever took her." Kakashi, Naruto and Sasuke all took off without hesitation.

"Kakashi Sensei who do you think kidnapped her? Someone from Teme's village maybe?" Naruto asked, Kakashi shook his head which indicated now was not the time for conversation. Sasuke kept his gaze focused in front of him, 'could it be Kabuto making his move to force her to revive Orochimaru?' he thought to himself. He felt like such an ass, if it were not for him she would be in Konoha safe, but no he had to push her away like always.

They arrived in Suna within 3 days and they were met at the gate by Gaara with a grim look on his face. He showed them to the medical unit where Sasuke found several splatters of blood on the wall and a few pools of it in varied spots, "The blood was tested and it is Sakura's and there is an unknown match, it is someone we do not have in our ninja records. She put up quite the fight as the pools belong to the one without a match." Sasuke clenched his fists before turning, 'this is Kabuto's work alright. He left the Unit this way to leave a message' He activated his sharingan and looked around the room discreetly.

Below the medicine unit was a syringe that looked like someone was injected, he flashed over and picked it up, inspecting it closely he recognized the serum. 'Truth serum….he never changes. What does he want with Sakura?' he thought and swiftly left the Medical unit and made his way back to sound, a place he had fought to avoid again, now he was going back not because he wished it, but because Kabuto had someone that was his. "and NO ONE takes what belongs to me" he said to himself as he sped through the trees.
